Configuring Parental Controls
Overview
With parental controls you can control network devices’ internet use.
For each individual network device, you can limit the duration and con-
tent of internet use. The specifications for temporal and content-relat-
ed restrictions are created and saved as access profiles. You assign
these access profiles to the network devices.
• You can create multiple different access profiles; see page77.
• With the device block you can block all internet use for a network
device without using a special access profile; see page75.
• With tickets you can extend the restricted use time for individual
network devices. A ticket is redeemed on the network device and
extends the use time by 45minutes. Tickets can be redeemed be-
fore the use time has been exhausted to avoid interruption of online
time. To distribute a ticket for extended use time, seeInstructions:
Distributing a Ticket for Extended Use Time, page76.
• The remaining online time permitted can be queried on any network
device with restricted online time; seeInstructions: Querying Re-
maining Online Time, page76.
Example
You have three children, all of whom use various devices that access
the internet via FRITZ!Box. You would like to restrict your children’s
use of the internet as follows:
• Their daily time online is to be restricted to a few hours.
• Access to websites with adult content is to be blocked.
With parental controls you can restrict the internet use of each child in-
dividually.
